In this FutureLink Boston 2025 session, NNIT/Excellis leaders Scott Potteiger and Dennis Even share real-world insights from more than 20 exception strategy engagements with manufacturers, wholesalers, and dispensers. They explore the root causes of common exceptions, from data mismatches to non-standard shipping practices, and outline structured methods for diagnosis, documentation, and resolution.
